Marseille president Pablo Longoria has called Ligue 1 a "shitty championship" following their defeat to Auxerre on Saturday.

OM lost 3-0 yesterday to fall 10 points behind leaders Paris Saint-Germain.

And the result caused Longoria to call out the French top flight as well as the officiating in the game.

According to local paper La Provence, president Pablo Longoria ā€˜flew into a rageā€™ post-match in the bowels of the Stade AbbĆ©-Deschamps in front of a dozen journalists.

ā€œThis is corruption! Iā€™ve never seen anything like it. You can write it down: Pablo Longoria says itā€™s corruption,ā€Ā Longoria reportedly shouted.

ā€œEverything has been organised since the third yellow given to Balerdi (suspended this Saturday against Auxerre).

"Itā€™s planned, itā€™s rigged. Thereā€™s a penalty on Merlin, four European referees have told me so by message, and the most scandalous thing is the red card to Cornelius.

ā€œThis is a shitty championship, If the Super League comes to see us, weā€™ll go right away.."
